    Finally there is a bizarre non-sex-related story coming from Romania!

    Prisoner sues God

    A Romanian prisoner is suing God for failing to save him from the Devil.

    The inmate, named as Pavel M in media reports, accused God of "cheating, abuse and traffic of influence".

    His complaint reads: "I, the undersigned Pavel M, currently jailed at Timisoara Penitentiary serving a 20 years sentence for murder, request legal action against God, resident in Heaven, and represented here by the Romanian Orthodox Church, for committing the following crimes: cheating, concealment, abuse against people's interest, taking bribe and traffic of influence."

    The inmate argued that his baptism was a contract between him and God who was supposed to keep the Devil away and keep him out of trouble.

    He added: "God even claimed and received from me various goods and prayers in exchange for forgiveness and the promise that I would be rid of problems and have a better life.

    "But on the contrary I was left in Devil's hands."

    The complaint was sent to the Timisoara Court of Justice and forwarded to the prosecutor's office.

    But prosecutors said it would probably be dropped and they were unable to subpoena God to court.

    So, if God were found guilty and sentenced to the death penalty, who would have mercy on his soul?

    He must be reading a different Bible than I am.

    Let's see...John the Baptist...had his head cut off.

    The disciples...most were put to death and lived lives of huge sacrifice.

    Early believers put to death...(insert something about Emperor Nero, here)

    oh, yeah...and Jesus Christ...lived a life persecuted and was ultimately crucified.

    God ought to sue him for unjust enrichment. I'm currently seeking the job of being God's attorney in that case.

    I'm guessing he would save himself, if he even bothers to show up for the trial.

    We should make this a class-action lawsuit.

    Everybody who ever got underwear and socks for Christmas should send an email to MadMax-- we'll save him the expense of advertising.

    The ironic thing about this is, immediately after submitting his complaint Pavel M was stabbed in the testicle by one of Satan's horns.

    I am reminded of the Onion headline:

    "Jews sue God over breach of convenant"

    The SUPREME court overturned that decision... albeit after the execution took place, but the WORD has it HE actually was vindicated and rose from HIS grave....

    all other court action against God has been stalled in the hearts of people by legal manuvers and questionable testimony; some don't expect the cases to come up again until the final court date... :) :)
